    I wonder where the Braehmer/Kovalev will take place? in Germany or Russia?

    If they put a contract in front of Braehmer he'll ditch that belt into the Rhine.

    I'm not sure why Jurgen is so apprehensive when it comes to taking big fights. His 0 went a long time ago to a fighter who rarely fought 12 round fights.

    You don't imagine he wants a career high payday? He isn't particularly chinnier or worse a technical boxer than, say, Chilemba. :conf No reason to assume he's getting KTFO, and this would be amply beyond any purse he probably has ever received.

    No, I don't imagine that he wants a carrer high pay day with the Krusher. If he wanted he could've had it let's say.... less than couple weeks, or a year ago, or half a year ago...RIGHT ??...Can't you guys read between the lines here ? ...Soon after the Chilemba fight ended and Kovalev has a career defining bout ALREADY SIGNED with Ward, the WBA orders this ish. Why didn't they order it in may when the 18 months ended and Kovalev was looking for an opponent ? Why ?? Why now and not then ???

    Braehmer's behavior in and out of the ring has always puzzled me. His personal history is very checkered. At times he has looked like a world beater in the ring and other times he looked like he was sleep walking through fights. He had a stellar amateur career beating Froch, Sturm and Hatton but his pro career has been one of unmet potential and missed opportunities.

    Sometimes I think he is just satisfied with less than he could be.
